Solar surface emerging flux regions: a comparative study of radiative MHD modeling and Hinode SOT observations

M. C. M. Cheung, M. Schuessler, T. D. Tarbell +1

We present results from numerical modeling of emerging flux regions on the solar surface. The modeling was carried out by means of 3D radiative MHD simulations of the rise of buoya…

Chromospheric Anemone Jets as Evidence of Ubiquitous Reconnection

Kazunari Shibata, Tahei Nakamura, Takuma Matsumoto +19

The heating of the solar chromosphere and corona is a long-standing puzzle in solar physics. Hinode observations show the ubiquitous presence of chromospheric anemone jets outside…

Magnetic Landscape of Sun's Polar Region

S. Tsuneta, K. Ichimoto, Y. Katsukawa +11

We present the magnetic landscape of the polar region of the Sun that is unprecedented in terms of high spatial resolution, large field of view, and polarimetric precision. These o…

Observations and modeling of the early acceleration phase of erupting filaments involved in coronal mass ejections

C. J. Schrijver, C. Elmore, B. Kliem +2

We examine the early phases of two near-limb filament destabilization involved in coronal mass ejections on 16 June and 27 July 2005, using high-resolution, high-cadence observatio…

Emergence of Small-Scale Magnetic Loops in the Quiet Sun Internetwork

R. Centeno, H. Socas-Navarro, B. Lites +11

We study the emergence of magnetic flux at very small spatial scales (less than 2 arcsec) in the quiet Sun internetwork. To this aim, a time series of spectropolarimetric maps was…
